Abstract
Abstract A laser ablated plasma created by an ArF excimer laser of wavelength of 193 nm, laser power of 150-200 mJ, repetition rate of 1 Hz, and zinc, copper, iron and nickel targets was studied. Quantitative emission studies are reported that are both space and time resolved. The space results of the laser ablated plasma suggest a confined plasma with a gaussian type distribution of atoms and ions. The time resolved studies show a maximum emission signal occurring at approximately 20 μs with a lifetime of less than 100 μs.
